Launch Week 8 breezed by, leaving behind a trail of new features to explore. Here is a recap of everything and an update of what else we are working on, like pgvector 0.5.0 with HNSW.
pgvector v0.5.0: Faster semantic search with HNSW indexes
Supabase Vector is about to get a lot faster đź’¨. pgvector v0.5.0 adds Hierarchical Navigable Small World (HNSW), a new type of index that ensures lightning-fast vector searches, especially in high-dimensional spaces and embeddings.
Day 1 - Hugging Face is now supported in Supabase
We are all about open source collaboration, and Hugging Face is one of the open source communities we admire most. That’s why we've added Hugging Face support in our Python Vector Client and Edge Functions (Javascript) 🤗
Day 2 - Supabase Local Dev: migrations, branching, and observability
The CLI received some serious upgrades including observability tools, streamlined backups, and enhanced migrations. But that's not all – the big game-changer is the introduction of Supabase branching which we’re rolling out to selected customers.
Day 3 - Supabase Studio 3.0
Supabase Studio went to #1 on Product Hunt with some huge new features, including AI SQL editor, Schema diagrams, Wrappers UI, and a lot more!
Day 4 - Supabase Integrations Marketplace
With the release of OAuth2 applications, we've made it easier than ever for our partners to extend the Supabase platform with useful tooling 🙌
Day 4 - Vercel Integration 2.0 and Next.js App Router Support
The New Supabase x Vercel integration streamlines the process of creating, deploying, and maintaining web applications with several enhancements. Plus, it fully supports the App Router in Next.js â–˛
Day 5 - Supavisor: Scaling Postgres to 1 Million Connections
Supavisor is a scalable, cloud-native Postgres connection pooler written in Elixir. It has been developed with multi-tenancy in mind, handling millions of connections without significant overhead or latency. We’re rolling it out to every database on our platform.
Community Highlights from the past 4 months
Launch Week is an event for our community, so it’s a good time to look back at what happened in the last months (spoiler: a lot).

Launch Week 8 Hackathon Winners
The decision was not easy, but after assessing a record number of submissions, the panel of judges chose WITAS as the winner of the Best Overall project. As the name doesn't suggest, it's an acronym for Wait is that a sticker? In a nutshell, it generates stickers with Midjourney. Huge congrats to Alex Streza and Catalina Melnic.
